A Cat Doctor.

There is q cat doctor who runs a drug
store III Washington, who, hit is said, is
doing the most thriving prgctice of any
allcviator Of the ills Of TIL feline and
canine races of any man in the profession
in the whole country. This physician
has the highest class of callers Of any
professional man il the city, as only the
most aristocratic can afford to have an
expert wait upon their pets. At times
as many as three or four carriages,
owned BY the most refined and wealthy
people at the National Capital, are
drawn up il front Of the dug store and
office, and his business IS So large that
customers with their patients have to
wait their turns, like mea in barber
shops. tits seldom thatia man enters
the drug store or Office for the purpose
Of receiving a prof essional call from the
the doctor They are almost invariably
women. .3
The doctor was philosophizing the
other day to some gentlemen on the gen
eral ails Of cats and dogs. during Whichhe
stated that more trouble came from lack
Of airand exercise than anything else He
especially deprecated the fact that these
household pets were guarded SO closely
in the house, and were not allowed to
romp around like children. s y
ST could name, 4 he said, families in
this city that guard as closely their pet
cats and dogs as they do their children.
Large numbers Of them have cribs and
cradles and lounges made for their pets,
and cushioned In the most comfortable
manner possible. AT one place / visited
recently i found al old Maltese reclining
on pillow of down. When I asked for
lit for the purpose Of making an exami-
nation the lady Of the house lifted it as
carefully as if It were ia tiny baby. She
had delicate spoons and forceps and a
douche to inject medicine into the poor
things cars. There was a spaab Of silk
and cotton to cleanse its throat, as if It
had something like diphtheria, and when
4I5 spoke of a severe medicine as the only
hope for recovery she threw up her hands

We should not too soon forget the
dead, nor should we be too ready to
forget the noble qualities of their char
acters while living. Funeral ceremo-
mics and obituaries are not for the bene-
fit of the dead, but to set forth the vir-
tue of their lives for the benefit of the
living.
Nora Hughev, the subject of this
sketch, was the daughter of j. w. and
Mary e. Hughey, both deceased. Mr.,
Hughey was the brother of John, Dave,

Mary Hughey, was Mary L. Wilson,
daughter of Mrs. Ludwick. Mr.. and
Mrs. Hughey have been dead some
years, and now Nora, who was Il years
old the 18th of last September, has
gone to join her parents in the other
world. Nora was one of the best of

scientious. She leaves a brother and

Far, far, away
A star is shining low in the west,
It's silvery ray,
Lights up the way,
From earth to the land of the blest.

Beneath its blue sky,
Is heard in those realms so fair
For ever it rolls
In its orbit of gold
And / wish, alb | wish | was there.
o, Psyche I'd be
SO happy and free
From the worlds troubles so far
With thee be blest
In happiness rest,
On the silver lined evening star.

BY BEVERLY. CLARK.

BY BEVERLY l.. CLARK.
When, in the bright blue mirror of the
sky,
On which the golden bars of sunset lie,
The twinkling stars, with doubtful yell
low light,
Foretell the silent hours of coming
night,
How sweet to rest in twilight shad-
ows grey,
From all our toll, and burdens of the
day.
Lone starry hours we bring no bitter
pain,
Nor sword of grief to cleave our hearts
in twain;
But some unknown, and mystic power
divine,
Uncloses then, our SPIRITS curtained
shrine.
Where love and beauty silently have
grown
From seeds of Truth, our daily lives
haye sown.
How sad to know that men grow tired
of strife,
Who, by their works, might gain at
close of life
The beauties of silvery-fretted eve
The sweet repose for those who will
believe.
Oh, weary not, but do whate'r you
can
TO sweeten life, and bless your fell
low-man;
And when at last the tangled web is
spun,
And Slowly sinks life's -vestured
sun,
A welcome summons your glad hearts
shall know
To where the fadeless stars in beauty
glow
"Your work is done on earth, / ask

In Eden's joys I'll rest thee ever

To the Superintendent ard Members of

Whereas, In view of the loss we have
sustained by the death of our little
friend and school-mate, Nora Hughey,
and of the still greater bereavment sus-
tanned by her relatives, therefore be 1t
Resolved by the RGssellville Cumber-
land Presbyterian Sunday School, That
in regretting her removal from our
midst, we lament the loss of a member
who was faithful in her attendance up
on Sabbath School, one devoted to her
teacher and her class; companion
loved by us all; and one whose short
life was as pure as that OF the TnTan1
who slumbers upoprIfts mothers bosom
Resolved, That i'm our sorrow for the
loss of one so young and so innocent
we find consolation in the belief that
in the golden hereafter, she will be
found in that n, altitude of children
whom Jesus will teake into his aims
and bless.
Resolved, That while we deeply SYM
pathize with the relatives of the depart
ed, we would point them to Him who
shall wipe away all our tears, remove
all our sorrow, and heal all our bleed
ing hearts with the balm of consolation.
Resolved, that these resolutions be
spread upon the records of the Sabbath
School, and copy thereof be trans
mitted to the Russellville DEMOCRAT for

Killed BY a Falling Barn.

This community was never more
shocked than when on last Thursday
the news flashed over town that a
!, mile out on the Dover road, two
of our most estimable citizens
i. j. Spillars and A. S. Hamilton -
had met sudden death by the fall
ing of barn which they we're at
work upon. A correspondent from
Shiloh gives the particulars. d. C.
Perry, brother-in law of the deceased
men, two sons of the unfortunate A.
/ s. Hamilton, and two colored men,
were at work on the building, and ex-
tricated the men as soon as possible
after the accident. Both men were
pinned to the earth by q heavy sill,
Mr.. S. was found in kneeling po-
sition and Mr.. H. in pretty much the
same attitude, both badly crushed
about the chest. Each of them real
lied the terrible. nature of their
wounds and knew they could not
live. Mr.. Spillars requested his
family sent for, saying he would be
willing to go after seeing them; but
his family could not reach him be-
fore he died. Mr.. Hamilton lived
longer and his family arrived before
he breathed his last, but he was too
weak to recognize them. The out
bursts of grief OF the stricken
families was heart-rending. The
funeral took place from Shiloh
church and was attended by large
concourse Of sorrowing relatives and
friends, attestng the high esteem in
which the deceased were held. Their
untimely death is a great calamity.
Sympathy is every where expressed
for the bereaved families. They
were buried in the same grave, "to
await the time when Christ shall
send his angels as jewel hunters to
gather from Mother Earth to Him
self all those who have trusted Him
for the future"
